Which Version of the Big Bang?

NASA/WMAP Science Team

Explanations of the Big Bang do not comport with scientific evidence, and fall flat. Worse for evolutionists, they do not seem to realize that cosmogonists are not in lockstep about the Big Bang in the first place. To further complicate matters, the Big Bang story itself keeps changing in a futile effort to fit the facts. Having fatally flawed presuppositions are at the root of the problems.

Some say that Christians should re-interpret what Genesis states about
the origin of the universe to match the claims of the Big Bang model.But
which Big Bang model are they talking about? Several versions have cropped up since Georges Lemaître suggested the idea in 1931.
Although these versions all say the universe expanded and cooled over
many billions of years, they differ significantly in the details of
events.

In 1979, physicist Alan Guth envisioned a major modification to solve a
number of serious difficulties. He posited that shortly after the Big
Bang, the universe supposedly underwent an enormous but extremely brief
growth spurt called inflation. After this brief inflationary period, the universe continued to expand but at a slower rate. Inflation became an essential part of the Big Bang model.

Theorists eventually concluded that inflation, once started, would
never completely stop. Rather, quantum mechanical uncertainties would
cause different regions of space to stop inflating at different times.
This would have resulted in the formation of pockets of non-inflating
space contained within a sea of still-inflating space. These islands of
space would become, in effect, their own universes.
